when ever i opened the door to my front load washer and smelled a musty odor , i would buy a box of tide washing machine cleaner the directions on the box are very simple to follow. as for musty smelling clothes that was due to my own fought for forgetting that i did a load of laundry. if you leave a load of laundry and leave them in washer longer then 24 hrs they will smell musty and you will need to rewash. other then that i never had a problem with odors coming from the washer.

I would have this smell in mine also but I just started letting mine cracked open when not in use. I know thwre are things out there on the internet showing you how to deep clean your washer also besides the Tide Washing machine cleaner, but I have not tried to do the deep cleaning on it.

The lesson is commercial units are different than residential. You have to read the directions and take care of the units you have and you will not have those problems. Isn't it common sense to lock up that moisture will create odor and mildew?
